HEATING-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 272,128, dated February 13, 1883.

' Application filed July 27, 1882. (No model.)

1' 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMEs DWYER, of Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Heating-Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following isa full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being bad to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.

The nature of this invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in the coustruotion ot'heating-stoves; and my invention consists of vertically-projected ribs formed upon the stove-body, to which to hinge the doors and form striking-faces for the latter to rest against, with each rib constructed with an exterior lap-joint to receive an iuteriorlyreversed lap rabbetjoint upon theother rib, so that the ribs, when united, shall be flush and circumt'erent-ially coincident, as more fully hereinafter described.

The invention relates especially to that class of stoves which have a series of doorsin revolution upon the stove exterior.

Figure l is a perspective of that section of a stove wherein two series of doors are employed. Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspective view ofa section, showing the projected rib between two of the doors in the series. Fig.

3 is a cross-section through the joint on the line .70 m in Fig. :3.

In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, A A A represent the rings by means of which the various secjoining end of the adjacent section, d. The,

members of these sections. are both exteriorly rabbeted, as at e c, to form a striking-surface, against which the ends of the doors rest. These rabbets are of such depth that when the doors are closed there will he a flush and coincident surface presented. By this construction the vertical ribis projected out flush with the adjoiningparts,while greater strength is obtained in hinging the doors thereto.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is---- In a stove having a series of doorsin revolution upon its exterior, a lapjoint, between the sections of which the door-frames are constructed, the outer surface of which is circunn ferentially flush with the outer surface of said doors, and furnishes the means of hinging the same, substantially as and for the purposes described.
